Their idea of a minority is, in all seriousness, a British dude painted orange.

Many Hollywood films are founded on privilege, but few are as open and nasty about their racism, misogyny, and homophobia. It's a feel-good movie for people who only comfortable around people who look and act just like them.

The movie is bland hackwork; its crime isn't incompetence, but indifference.

Barring a few off-color jokes, though, the movie feels like a Carol Burnett sketch dragged out to feature length.

Sadly, superior talent can propel a movie only so far. Bad scripts beget bad movies, even when four Academy Award winners are involved.

Yet another comedy about a wacky weekend wedding for wealthy WASPs.

It's tired and dated with too few laughs to justify the stultifying attempts at drama and the impossible-to-swallow plot contortions.

This is an American movie trying, strenuously, to "swing" a little. The slapstick is broad and generally awkward.

If we're going to continue to make French comedies into American films, then we must insist France write something original. Please.

When Robert DeNiro says things like "poon job," it hurts our ears and probably leaves a bad taste in his mouth.

The Big Wedding is the kind of movie where casting Christine Ebersole as a woman named Muffin is seen as the height of comedy. No thanks.

Looks great, some terrific ingredients, but when you slice it up, what a disappointment.

It has no value other than to remind us that these people have made better, similar films that we can rent.

A film without any true concept of what it's trying to accomplish.

Though the seasoned cast are certainly game, the heartfelt nature of Zackham's screenplay and the message that sometimes we must lie in order to protect our loved ones combine to make this one strange stew in which the various ingredients clash.

An incoherent string of crude skits, including one where Robert De Niro sheepishly sports a substance-eating grin after being caught performing cunnilingus between a widespread pair of naked legs. Look! A falling star! Make a wish!

We appreciate the cast and Zackham's attempted avoidance of cliche. Too bad it's just not very funny.

Movie-family weddings are like real ones. Some faces are welcome, some you dread and others have had work done. But they all get tiresome quickly.
